I have a huge headache right now and I just can't think straight, so please forgive me...

I have a previous host who will be ordering the host special from the new host (booking benefit) who booked off of her show. Does the amount she spends on the host special go towards the $60 she needs to spend in order to get the guest special?

See that just doesn't even make sense as I'm writing this... I'm sorry. Does anyone know what I mean?
 
Yes, it does. The amount she pays for the Host Special counts towards her $60. It also counts toward the guest sales. It just doesn't count for your commission. Hope your headache goes away quickly.

Oh thank you so much! :) I really hope it goes away fast. I just can't seem to think clearly right now... I hope the Tylenol kicks in soon. Thanks again.
 
This may sound odd, but, depending on what is causing your headache, hanging upside down might help. Just stand up, bend over at your waist, and let your arms and hands dangle. Do your best to release all of your tension. You might feel a few pops and crackles in your spine. This is really good for tension headaches.
 
I am fascinated when I put in Shows with PH specials with the difference in my commissionable sales and guest sales. Sometimes it is more and sometimes less. If the Host orders quite a bit with her discount (not over 45% off and over the amount spent by the PH), it gives me more in commission that the Guest Sales and vice versa! Sometimes I feel like it's a game! LOL!
